Worldwide rates of primary and revision total
knee arthroplasty (TKA) are rising due to increased longevity of
the population and the burden of osteoarthritis.

Aims. Current guidelines consider analyses of joint aspirates, including leucocyte cell count (LC) and polymorphonuclear percentage (PMN%) as a diagnostic mainstay of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). It is unclear if these parameters are subject to a certain degree of variability over time. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the variation of LC and PMN% in patients with aseptic
